Double Hung Windows
Double-hung windows feature two sliding sashes, the bottom slides up or the top can slide down. They do not protrude so they are the best option for rooms that face walk areas or outdoor living spaces. As an added feature, both sashes have the capability to tilt inward to make cleaning easy.
The traditional style and countless optional variations of a double-hung window makes them a very popular choice as a window replacement. They can match the style of nearly any house. The added versatility of being able to open from the top or bottom means they will function in nearly any room.
Get Creative
Styling double-hung windows can require creativity. Since they can open from the top or the bottom, shades or blinds are not usually a good option. Drapes can be used if the window is not too narrow. If you do use drapes, lightweight drapes are recommended. Privacy film works well in bedrooms and bathrooms but does not block light. The best solution for styling double-hung windows is often a combination of applications depending on your overall needs.
